I was at the shake shack earlier today and I know that it was a Johnny Rockets before, but does anyone remember what it was before that because I can’t seem to remember.

Wasn't Arthur Treachers there at some point too?

If I'm remembering my fast food places correctly, that was just part of Nathan's. I know for a fact that the one that is/was in the Hudson mall was also an AT because I used to work over there and due to lack of variety, I'd get a fish and chips platter once in a while from them.

There's still an Arthur Treachers at the journal square path.

As someone who used to work at the movie theater back in the day (pre-renovation), this is the right answer.

Does anyone remember when the AMC used to have the arcade ?

I’ll never understand why they got rid of it

Everyone has a PC, or a console nowadays. Shame the classic arcade games got a unique feel to it.

Yea that’s a great point, I just wish people had more of an interest in preserving things like that

I think before. Back in the day it was a Sbaro pizza?

I don’t think there was anything before Johnny Rockets. Before Johnny rockets it was easier to make that left to go to the bathroom.

Nah, it was a Cinnabon or Mrs. Fields (both perhaps at different times?) on the corner and a few spots that existed on the side perpendicular to the movie theater. Can't recall what it was, but JR's was not the original in that spot at all.

Oh you right. I think they combined the spaces and extended it a bit for JR and that took away the kid ride/bench by the bathroom
DirectorBeneficial48 t1_izclp9x wrote
Yea, they definitely combined em. And I'd forgotten that kiddy ride was there.
